Your friend’s mysterious disappearance results in the discovery of an unusual item, leading you to embark on a journey through time and memory. In this narrative puzzle adventure by PostCurious and Jack Fallows, an intimate coming-of-age story is told through an object that serves as a tarot deck, a puzzle game, and a work of art. You will need to manipulate cards, find hidden messages, and solve logic and word problems in order to uncover the deck’s secrets. Packed with gorgeous illustrations, resonant storytelling, and unique puzzles, The Light in the Mist can be played solo or cooperatively in a small group. It’s non-linear structure and varied puzzle difficulty will engage players of all experience levels with over five hours of gameplay. Do you have what it takes to overcome the challenges thrown your way without getting lost in the mist?

This was my first Post Curious tabletop experience, which then lead me to falling in love with the company and wanting more. Light in the Mist is very mystical-feeling as you play through and learn more about the story and its characters. The art is incredible, and the tarot element in solving the puzzles makes this escape box unlike anything I've ever played or 'escaped'. It's a lengthy journey, but endlessly fun. There's even a surprise, non-card puzzle near the end :) want to set the mood even more? When you sit down to play, I recommend some low lights, a candle or two, and an enchanted playlist to softly play in the background. It amps your playthrough up to a whole new level!

A super unique game play with a few VERY creative ways to use cards. The artwork was absolutely beautiful and many of the puzzles were satisfying solves. Just know that this game requires a lot of time, brain power, and patience.

This game was so unique and we loved the tarot element. The art on the cards was beautiful and the story throughout the experience was very moving. We loved being able to learn and play with the tarot cards afterwards, extending our experience! We played as a 3 and there was plenty for us all to be involved and enjoying it

This was such a unique take on a take home escape room. I've done plenty of Unlock! type games, but the art, game play, and challenge of this one outpaces those by far. Highly recommend
